We are all smart people no? Can we not see what's going on, Twitter in their early days was very proud they started civil wars in the Arab spring. This is clearly a power move to block competition, all places on the internet where many people group together start out as trash. Content moderation is only possible when you have network effects that people can't leave. Its similar to not putting ads on your new trending startup. Moderation will now be used to block all new social media startups because you can not bootstrap moderation. I'm very concerned what is happening. These companies have far too much power.

> This is clearly a power move to block competition I really do not agree at all. Not all social media sites start like 4chan nor do I think this move started to squash competition. There's a legitimate need being served to preserve the commonwealth in silencing these communities, especially after recent events. For what it's worth, what competition is Parler to AWS anyways? Aren't they a customer? Shouldn't amazon want them to grow beyond belief so they can be a whale of a customer?
